This Day's Thought

Of all persons the Christian should be best prepared for whatever the New Year brings. He has dealt with life at its source. In Christ he has disposed of a thousand enemies that other men must face alone and unprepared. He can face his tomorrow cheerful and unafraid because yesterday he turned his feet into the ways of peace and today he lives in God. The man who has made God his dwelling place will always have a safe habitation.

A. W. Tozer

This Day's Verse

Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

2 Peter 3:13
The King James Version

This Day's Reprise

And during the New Year may you have:
enough happiness to keep you sweet – enough trials to keep you strong,
enough sorrow to keep you human – enough hope to keep you happy,
enough failure to keep you humble – enough success to keep you eager,
enough friends to give you comfort – enough wealth to meet your needs,
enough enthusiasm to make you look forward to tomorrow, and
enough determination to make each day better than the day before.

This Day's Thought

Blessed is the pilgrim, who in every place, and at all times of this his banishment in the body, calling upon the holy name of Jesus, calleth to mind his native heavenly land, where his blessed Master, the King of saints and angels, waiteth to receive him.  Blessed is the pilgrim who seeketh not an abiding place unto himself in this world; but longeth to be dissolved, and be with Christ in heaven.

Thomas à Kempis

This Day's Verse

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control;

Galatians 5:22-23

This Day's Reprise

Too many clergymen have become keepers of an aquarium instead of fishers of men—and often they are just swiping each other’s fish.

As I draw near the borderland…the wonderful light of the other life seems often to shine so joyfully into this one, that I almost forget the past and present, in an eager anticipation of the approaching awakening.

This Day's Thought

We Christians look to the future even more than to the present; it is part of our new nature to do so.

This Day's Smile

They tell about a fifteen-year-old boy in an orphans’ home who had an incurable stutter.  One Sunday the minister was detained and the boy volunteered to say the prayer in his stead.  He did it perfectly, too, without a single stutter.  Later he explained, “I don’t stutter when I talk to God.  He loves me.”

This Day's Thought

Not only have vast numbers of Americans lost all sense of the sacred, the moral, and the ethical, but the spiritual leaders from both the laity and the priesthood are often found in the forefront of this irreligious pursuit of comfort rather than conviction-of accommodation rather than truth-of the pleasant life rather than the meaningful life.

Frank Carlson

This Day's Verse

For we are the temple of the living God.

2 Corinthians 6:16
The New International Version

This Day's Reprise

We can all get to heaven without health, without wealth, without fame, without learning, without culture, without beauty, without friends, without ten thousand things.  But we can never get to heaven without Christ.

This Day's Thought

If heaven be such a blessed world, then let this be our chosen country, and the inheritance we seek.

Jonathan Edwards

This Day's Verse

Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on.  Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?

Matthew 6:25
The King James Version

This Day's Reprise

I choose gentleness…nothing is won by force.  I choose to be gentle.  If I raise my voice may it be only in praise.  If I clench my fist, may it be only in prayer.  If I make a demand, may it be only of myself.
